    This thread is kind of aimed at John Maloney, but please, anyone feel free to chime in. I ordered a clean up crew and the confounded large snails have headed up to the top at the corners near the overflow. What is up with that? Yes I have seen it before and one of those actions that have bewildered me, But dadgummit, they aren't doing any good all huddled up there. :huh:

    If you got them from reefcleaners.org i think they are the nerites probably about the size of a nickel? If so, they are can't see and you just need to put them on your rock. they probably crawled up there on the glass looking for food and didn't run into any.
